Phase 2 — Testing in a bigger group (up to a few hundred people) to see if the treatment actually works and is still safe.
This research trial is testing whether —a medication given alongside professional therapy—can help veterans who are dealing with both post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and alcohol use disorder at the same time. The study will involve 18 veterans who will receive the medication during structured therapy sessions with specially trained clinicians. Researchers will also look at brain imaging and other markers to understand how the treatment works.
Many veterans struggle with both PTSD and alcohol use disorder together, and existing treatments don't always work well for this combination. This medication paired with therapy may offer a new way to address both conditions at once and help veterans heal.

You would visit the research clinic for a baseline assessment and optional brain imaging scans. Then you would receive the medication in structured therapy sessions led by trained clinicians, during which you would work through your trauma and alcohol use with professional support. A trusted friend or family member would stay with you on the days you receive the medication. After treatment ends, you would return for follow-up assessments to see how you're doing. The whole process involves several in-person visits over a defined period.
